To all 'whom 'it may concern:

[Be it known that ANTHONY SAUNnnnS MORRIS, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing in Haverford, Delaware county, ennsylvana, have invenied certain linprovenienls in Feeding l e'vices for ilvaporaiors, olfwhich the following is a. speeiliea- Lion. l

My invention relates 'to eraporaii-njgI apparatus, and consiste oi'r'means forxjfeeding the tubes of that class of evaporators in which@(nioentration is eii'eei'ed by movement of the liquid in an inmfardinfection in ihns upon ilie wails'oi' suitable emernally heated lubes.
